Page 6 of 7Recommendations for Packaging Artwork
Please remember to pack your artwork carefully for entry into the Oregon Department of Fish and
Wildlife stamp contest(s). Artwork that is hand delivered to the Salem Headquarters Office still needs to
be enclosed in protective packaging to prevent damage while storing and in transit to the judging event.
For packing artwork, we recommend the following:
1. Use a stiff packing material to ensure that the art will not be bent or damaged in transit. We find
that artwork placed in a shallow box or sandwiched between two pieces of cardboard that are just
slightly bigger than the artwork is best. This is a simple packing method, there is little space for the
artwork to shift around in, and often costs less to ship than using a large box.
2. We discourage the use of packing peanuts, lots of bubble wrap, or other packaging fillers as the
artwork can still shift around inside the box. If your box is sized to your artwork, often a piece of
foam board on each side of your artwork is enough padding to protect it.
3. If you are entering multiple entries into our contests, we recommend you ship all the entries in the
same box. Place a protective cover or sheet of paper between each entry.
4. If you are hand delivering your entry, you are welcome to place your art in a portfolio or light
cardboard mailer for protection.
5. Remember if you do not win, your artwork will be shipped/returned to you in the packaging you
entered it in. The Oregon Department of Fish & Wildlife is not responsible for damages incurred
during shipping.
